Hi, I'm writing my first FDW, and I need to get the list of columns I actually need to fetch when planning the query. I do want to fetch only the columns that are actually needed, not all of them.
Initially I've used RelOptInfo->reltargetlist but it seems it does not cover cases like SELECT 1 FROM FDW WHERE column_a = 1 and so on. Even RelOptInfo->attr_needed seems not to work as this returns "not needed" for all columns: for (i = baserel->min_attr; i <= baserel->max_attr; i++) { if (baserel->attr_needed[i-baserel->min_attr] != NULL) elog(WARNING, "attr %d needed", i); else elog(WARNING, "attr %d not needed", i); } Where to get this info? Also, I'd like to apply as much restrictions as possible when executing the plan. I see there's PlanState->qual, described as "implicitly-ANDed qual conditions", which I assume is what I need. But this seems to be available only in BeginForeignScan (as ss.ps.qual in ForeignScanState), not in planning which is the place where I need to compute estimates etc. Where do I get this, when planning the query? kind regards Tomas -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
